Abstract (en)

[origin: WO8600113A1] To modify a given profile of a gallery of the like, particularly a circular profile so as to give it the shape of a vault, a succession of deepenings are drilled in the longitudinal direction of the gallery into the wall by means of a drilling head (12) which is first displaced perpendicularly to the direction of the gallery. The deepenings are made in such a way that they overlap each other. A device for implementing such method comprises a feed device (18, 19, 28, 29) for moving in the direction of the gallery wall a drilling head (12) provided at its front end with tools.
